End-to-End Packaging Graphic Design & Pre-Press Studio in Okhla

Even the most modern Heidelberg offset press cannot rescue flawed pre-press artwork. Trapping errors, miscalculated fold margins, low-resolution raster imagery, and uncompensated dot gain can ruin production runs of hundreds of thousands of cartons. Ad King houses a fully equipped packaging design and pre-press department at our plant in Okhla Industrial Area Phase 2, New Delhi.

Our creative team is comprised of seasoned packaging graphic designers, structural dieline engineers, and certified pre-press specialists who understand how two-dimensional digital files behave when folded into three-dimensional physical boxes.

Comprehensive Design & Pre-Press Services

  1. Structural Packaging Dieline Engineering: Every carton begins with an exact geometric CAD dieline. We calibrate paperboard caliper allowances, fold clearance gaps, tuck flap friction, and glue tab widths so your boxes assemble effortlessly on manual or automated packaging lines.

  2. Pre-Press Proofing & Color Separation: Converting creative concepts into press-ready plates requires technical mastery. We manage:

    • Trapping & Bleed: Eliminating unsightly white hairline gaps between adjoining ink colors during high-speed printing.
    • Spot Color & Pantone Formulation: Matching corporate brand colors with spectrophotometric ink recipes.
    • Overprint & White Undercoats: Layering opaque white screens for metallic Met-Pet films and holographic substrates.
  3. Digital 3D Virtual Prototyping: Before approving printing plates, clients receive photorealistic 3D digital renderings illustrating how the folded carton looks from all angles under virtual studio lighting.
